Low-End Graphics
Since our last price guide, we currently have three AIB manufacturer's producing the newly released X1300 graphics cards. Both the MSI Radeon X1300 Pro 256MB [RTPE: RX1300PRO-TD256E] on sale for about $110 and the Sapphire Radeon X1300 256MB [RTPE: 100141] going for $100, seem like respectable deals. Too bad they don't cost much less than the 6600 GT, which ends of being a faster card.
For those who have no real need for great graphics, these low-end cards should be suitable. They're better than onboard graphics and also have the TV-Out option which many people like to use to watch movies on their televisions.
And that wraps up another video card price guide. Stay tuned next week for our recommendations and pricing!

I figured there might be some sort of comment in this article about the availability issues with the GTX 512MB. I'm sure Anandtech has many more reliable sources of information than the rest of us. It would be nice to hear more than just rumours from sites like INQ about what is really going on.Shortass - Friday, December 9, 2005 - link
Wow, NVidia has really dominated the market on all levels. I'm trying hard to stay an ATI fanboy, but it's just really not that feasable at this point. Maybe by the summer...lexmark - Friday, December 9, 2005 - link
